The family members present turned to Liam in astonishment. They did not expect that Liam who looked so dejected would suddenly spring up to his feet invigorated.Liam looked around the room with his eyes widened in shock. He hastily put his phone on loudspeaker so that they could hear the whole conversation before speaking.“Hello. Am I speaking to Liam Chamberlain?” the caller asked professionally from the other end of the phone.“Yes, I am Liam Chamberlain!” Liam answered energetically.“I’ll repeat what I said earlier.” The caller said politely.“I am Zack Lyle from West Atlantics Int’l, and I would like to invest in your company.”Everyone, including Pearl, looked at Liam with their eyes widened from shock.Invest in their company?!They could feel their hopes being rekindled once more when they heard Zack’s words, but they forced themselves to calm down.While it was great news that a company was willing to invest in them, they didn’t think much about it. At most, it would be a s
Meanwhile, while the members of the Chamberlain family were celebrating the miracle that happened to them, Darius was relaxing on a chair beside his indoor pool with a glass of wine.He had already done his best to save Pearl’s father company. With the investment from his company, they should be able to scale through this crisis.Regarding the Gillette Group, Darius vowed that the father and son pair will face the consequences of their crimes, both past and present.He couldn't stand the injustice done to the victims of their crimes. He had already told Bruce of this, and the father and son pair would be detained by the police shortly.Darius couldn't care less whether his actions would offend Dream Investment Group because the Gillette Group was a subsidiary of theirs. The influence that a consortium wielded was terrifying, and not something that just anyone could withstand.Darius stood up and removed his bathrobe at that moment, revealing his terrifically built body. He was left in
Darius had just finished meeting with the top executives of Century Enterprises, a top company in Eden city which was under the Reid consortium when his phone rang.He checked the caller ID and saw that it was an unknown number. However, he decided to answer the phone call.“Hello.” Darius said as he answered the call.There was a brief moment of silence before the caller spoke up.“Hello. Is this Darius Reid?” the caller asked.Darius was taken aback when he heard the caller’s voice.The caller was definitely a lady.This situation piqued Darius’ interest. He could feel like he had heard the caller’s voice before, but couldn’t place where it was.“Yes, I am Darius Reid.” Darius answered.There was another brief moment of silence. When the caller didn’t speak up for a few seconds, Darius couldn’t help but break the uncomfortable silence.“Who is this and how I may help you?” Darius asked. There was a tinge of slight impatience in his voice as he asked.Albeit he was curious about the
The next day, Zack arrived at the Greenspring Residence and headed straight to the Chamberlains villa. There, he and Liam discussed the contract in details before signing it.The moment the contract was signed; Zack transferred $100 million to the company’s account as promised, successfully resolving the issue.After signing the contract, Liam accompanied Zack outside the villa. He tried to invite him out for a meal, but Zack immediately turned him down, saying that he had so many things to do, and this meeting was just one of them.Liam had no choice but to accept Zack’s words. He didn’t want to risk offending his benefactor by persuading him, so he simply chose to accompany him.Following Zack’s departure, the family members of the Chamberlains present wished Liam well before leaving.Their departure was well expected, as they had their own businesses to attend to. The only reason they were here was because their backer, the Chamberlains Corporations was in trouble. Now that the iss
“West Atlantics Int’l?” The figure asked domineeringly.Beads of sweat formed on Alan’s head as the figure asked. His aura was just too overwhelming, and Alan felt like he had been submerged in a bucket of ice.“Y-yes.” Alan stuttered.There another was a brief moment of silence, and the figure withdrew his suffocating aura before he finally spoke up.“Tell me more about this company.”Alan heaved a sigh of relief after the figure withdrew his aura before proceeding to tell the figure all the details he knew about West Atlantics Int’l.As Alan spoke, the figure listened with rapt attention, and by the time Alan was done speaking, there was an indiscernible smirk on his lips.“Interesting.” The figure commented.According to Alan, West Atlantics Int’l was a new investment company based in Capital city, and the sole chairman was a young man in his twenties who was acquainted with Tyrell Sanders of the Sanders Group.Perhaps, the young man had a very impressive background, which was why
West Atlantics Int’l was developing faster when compared with other business enterprises in Capital city, but that didn’t change the fact that it was a new company. Coupled with the fact that Darius information was largely hidden from the internet, many people would come up with nothing solid when they investigated him. Why was James worried? The reason was simple. Darius took down the Gillette Group, which was a subsidiary of Dream Investment Group. Despite the Reid consortium's terrifying influence in S country, he chose to remain passive for the time being after what happened to his son and daughter-in-law. He was aware that a mysterious figure backed the Dream Investment Group, so even when Dream Investment Group subsidiary companies targeted other medium-sized companies in the Reid consortium, he didn't go too far in dealing with them; not until he figured out who was behind Dream Investment Group. There were many things that were unknown, and even an influential financial gr
[Dragon Lord Imperial Residence, Darius Residence]Darius was naturally unaware of the impending danger to his life and went about his daily activities as usual.He performed the meditation techniques in the tattered book his grandfather gave him before practicing his martial arts.As he practiced his martial arts daily, Darius found out that he was getting increasingly stronger after every practice session.It was certainly strange, as Darius didn’t know the reason why he made such rapid improvements.Moreover, he also noticed that his progress was now stalling.When he first began practicing martial arts after the assassination attempt, his martial arts skills improved by leaps and bounds. However, his progress stalled nearly two months after the assassination attempt. It was as if he was at a bottleneck and needed something extra to break through.Of course, the reason why Darius’ martial arts skills improved greatly was because of the golden liquid his grandfather gave him when he
Darius couldn’t see the masked figure’s movement clearly, but he could feel a huge sense of crisis when the masked figure disappeared suddenly.When the masked figure reappeared in front of him, the sense of crisis he felt multiplied by tenfold.His instinct flared up at that moment, and he raised his hands to block the attack from the masked figureBoom!A loud sound instantly echoed in the room.Darius flew back greatly from the force of the hit and landed against the wall in the room. His hands were completely numb after the blocking the hit, and he could barely feel them.‘So strong!’ Darius thought inwardly.The attack from earlier was very strong and could have clearly rendered him incapacitated or worse if he didn’t manage to block it on time.Meanwhile, the masked figure was in complete shock.Prior to this attack, he had monitored Darius greatly and discovered that he had not yet awakened his Qi, so he wasn’t much of a threat to him.However what was this situation?Even thou
